Answer:
20,158 cases
Step-by-step explanation:
Let represent year 2010.
We have been given that since 2010, when 102390 Cases were reported, each year the number of new flu cases decrease to 85% of the prior year.
Since the flu cases decrease to 85% of the prior year, so the flu cases for every next year will be 85% of last year and decay rate is 15%.
We can represent this information in an exponential decay function as:
To find number of cases in 2020, we will substitute in our decay function as:
Therefore, 20,158 cases will be reported in 2020.
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Method 1.</em>
slope = rise/run
Rise is vertical distance.
Run is horizontal distance.
Find two points that are easy to read (on grid intersections):
(2, -1) and (5, 0).
Start at (2, 1). You need to go to (5, 0) by moving only vertically and horizontally. Go up 1 unit. That is a rise of 1. Now go right 3 units. That is a run of 3.
rise = 1
run = 3
slope = rise/run = 1/3
<em>Method 2.</em>
Use the slope formula and two points on the line.
Use points (2, -1) and (5, 0).
slope = 1/3
